The Fall Guy Soundtrack Guide: Every Song & When They Play (2025)

The Fall Guy boasts a hit-filled soundtrack loaded with rock-and-roll songs, love ballads, and Taylor Swift. The 2024 action movie starring Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt brings massive set pieces and action sequences to audiences for a new thrilling adventure. Directed by David Leitch, The Fall Guy focuses on stuntman Colt Seavers (Gosling) who is tasked with finding the missing lead of his ex-girlfriend Jody's (Blunt) directorial debut. While that means plenty of action for viewers, watching The Fall Guy also opens viewers up to the rekindled romance between Colt and Jody.

It is the mixture of romance and action that makes The Fall Guy such a pleasant viewing experience for audiences. The film is a great showcase for the stunt community in a major blockbuster, while Gosling and Blunt's chemistry aids the characters and story. The gripping stunts and blossoming romantic feelings pave the way for The Fall Guy's soundtrack to be filled with recognizable songs. Most of them play over top of action sequences, although a karaoke night helps increase The Fall Guy's track list. The end result is hearing 1980s rock, modern pop, and more music genres.

When Every Song On The Fall Guy's Soundtrack Plays In The Movie

There Are 14 Songs In The Fall Guy

"I Was Made for Lovin' You" by Kiss - The main song on The Fall Guy's soundtrack is Kiss' 1979 song "I Was Made for Lovin' You." It is the first tune heard as viewers watch the movie, as it plays over the intro of the film. "I Was Made for Lovin' You" makes a return during The Fall Guy's ending too. It plays during the final action sequence and as Colt falls out of the helicopter.

"Fiesta" by Mariachi La Estrella - The Spanish song "Fiesta" is heard briefly in The Fall Guy when the movie shows Colt's time working as a valet at a Mexican restaurant.

"Thunderstruck" by AC/DC - Another recognizable piece of rock music is next heard in the movie, as "Thunderstruck" by AC/DC gets a big moment. The song in The Fall Guy plays over a variety of scenes early on beginning when Colt is on the phone with Gail. The 1990 hit continued to play as the movie shows Colt driving one of the valeted cars and traveling to the set of Metalstorm, which happens as the opening credits roll.

"All Too Well (Taylor's Version)" by Taylor Swift - Taylor Swift is part of The Fall Guy's soundtrack as her version of "All Too Well" plays once Colt gets into a truck after his first day on set. The song can be heard as Colt thinks back on memories with Jody before she interrupts him and finds him crying. The Fall Guy including a Taylor Swift song was previously known through the trailers.

"All I Do Is Win" by DJ Khaled (feat. T-Pain, Ludacris, Snoop Dogg & Rick Ross) - When Colt breaks into Tom Ryder's apartment, an instantly recognizable song from 2010 begins to play. This is where DJ Khaled's hit song "All I Do Is Win" is heard in The Fall Guy, as Colt accidentally turns on the house's sound system.

"I Believe in a Thing Called Love" by The Darkness - The Darkness is responsible for one of The Fall Guy's songs. "I Believe in a Thing Called Love" plays over a montage of Colt and Jody working on Metalstorm's big fight sequence.

"Genie in a Bottle" by Christina Aguilera - The Fall Guy's soundtrack does not include the official version of Christina Aguilera's song "Genie in a Bottle." Instead, the song is heard thanks to a karaoke night at a bar. It is the selection of Nigel, allowing Adam Dunn to sing a section of it.

"Looks That Kill" by Mötley Crüe - Mötley Crüe's song "Looks That Kill" is another song that is heard in The Fall Guy, but not in its original form. The tune is a different selection used on karaoke night.

"Against All Odds (Take a Look at Me Now)" by Phil Collins - The Fall Guy's song list includes Phil Collins' "Against All Odds (Take a Look at Me Now)" too. The song begins to play during Jody's turn at karaoke, and Emily Blunt sings it at first. The movie then brings in Phil Collins' original version as it plays when Colt is fighting Tom's henchmen on a truck.

"I Hate Myself for Loving You" by Joan Jett & The Blackhearts - Joan Jett also gets to be part of the movie's soundtrack, even if her version of "I Hate Myself for Loving You" is not heard. The song is another selection used on karaoke night instead.

"I Was Made for Lovin' You" by Yungblud - A cover of Kiss' song "I Was Made for Lovin' You" by Yungblud plays a pivotal role in The Fall Guy. The more somber rendition of the rock song plays as Colt talks to Jody on the phone as he flees Tom's henchmen on a boat. It continues to play up until Colt's apparent death during the boat crash.

"Unknown Stuntman (Fall Guy Theme)" by Blake Shelton - The Fall Guy's credits include a familiar song for fans of the original TV series, as "Unknown Stuntman (Fall Guy Theme)" is heard. The song was originally performed by The Fall Guy's TV show star, Lee Majors. For the movie remake, country music artist Blake Shelton performs "Unknown Stuntman (Fall Guy Theme)" to put his own stamp on the recognizable tune.

"Unsung Heroes" by Dominic Lewis & David Leitch - The movie's credits also include an original song created for The Fall Guy called "Unsung Heroes." It is written by the film's composer Dominic Lewis and director David Leitch, with Lewis also performing it for the credits. The song is an ode to stunt people and pays respect to The Fall Guy's stunt team.

"Waiting For Love" by Dominic Lewis - Dominic Lewis also wrote another original song for The Fall Guy called "Waiting For Love" that plays over the end of the movie's credits. It is the final entry on The Fall Guy's soundtrack.

Where To Listen To The Fall Guy's Soundtrack

The Score Is By Dominic Lewis

The Fall Guy's soundtrack is available on Apple and Spotify for fans of the movie wanting to listen to it, but it does not include the full selection of songs.

How The Fall Guy Soundtrack Came Together

The Team Behind The Movie Talks About The Big Songs Included And The One They Cut

Despite The Fall Guy being hyped as a love letter to stunt performers and focusing on big action sequences, there was a lot of effort put into this soundtrack for the movie. The Fall Guy really comes alive through the use of its varied song choices and it was the work of several members of the production that allowed for such an effective soundtrack. Several members of the team spoke to Variety about putting the soundtrack together, and music supervisor Rachel Levy ultimately credits director David Leitch’s love for music for much of the impact:

“If you look at his work from ‘Bullet Train’ to ‘Hobbs and Shaw,’ and ‘Deadpool,’ they have big musical moments with character.”

While there were a lot of memorable songs used in the movie, there were also some notable ones that were left on the cutting room floor. The biggest was the Alanis Morissette tune “You Oughta Know.” The song was initially meant to be the song that Jody sings in the karaoke bar, showcasing her anger and sadness about Colt apparently breaking another promise. After begging Morissette to allow the use of the song, the singer agreed, only for them to realize they needed to cut down the sequence and the song no longer fit.

There was also a lot of controversy surrounding the use of the Kiss song “I Was Made for Loving You”. Leitch came up with the use of the song himself, but he got a lot of pushback from many of his collaborators, including Ryan Gosling, and producer Kelly McCormick. However, when no other song seemed to fit, they tried out Leitch’s original choice and everyone agreed that it worked. In fact, it became something of a theme song for the movie and was incorporated into composer Dominic Lewis’ score for the movie. Leitch explained:

“What I liked about Kiss was it was crystallizing the tone of the movie for me, which was equal parts camp and cool.”

While that was the unofficial theme song for the movie, Blake Shelton was also recruited to perform an updated version of “Unknown Stuntman,” the theme from the 1980s Fall Guy TV show. Of course, one of the biggest names on the soundtrack is Taylor Swift, with the scene of Gosling listening to “All Too Well” in the car and crying being used heavily in the trailers for the movie. However, the team behind The Fall Guy insists the decision to include Swift on the soundtrack came before the wild reception of the Eras Tour.
